1 Makoronike 12
1 Ava ndivo varume vakauya kuna Dhavhidhi paZikiragi achakavanda nokuda kwaSauro mwanakomana waKishi; uye ndivo vamwe vavarwi vakamubatsira muhondo.
Now these are they that came to David to Siceleg, while he yet fled from Saul the son of Cia, and they were most valiant and excellent warriors,
2 Vakanga vapakata uta uye vaigona kupfura miseve nezvimviriri noruoko rworudyi kana rworuboshwe; vaiva hama dzaSauro dzokurudzi rwaBhenjamini.
Bending the bow, and using either hand in hurling stones with slings, and shooting arrows: of the brethren of Saul of Benjamin.
3 Ahiezeri, mukuru wavo, naJoashi, vanakomana vaShemaya muGibheati; Jezieri naPereti vanakomana vaAzimavheti; Bheraka, Jehu muAnatoti,

From Gaddi also there went over to David, when he lay hid in the wilderness most valiant men, and excellent warriors, holding shield and spear: whose faces were like the faces of a lion, and they were swift like the roebucks on the mountains.
9 Ezeri ndiye aiva mukuru, Obhadhia ari wechipiri, Eriabhi ari wechitatu,

14 VaGadhi ava ndivo vaiva vatungamiriri vamauto, mudiki ainge akaenzana nezana, uye mukuru ainge akaenzana nechiuru.
These were of the sons of Gad, captains of the army: the least of them was captain over a hundred soldiers, and the greatest over a thousand.
15 Ivava ndivo vaya vakayambuka Jorodhani mumwedzi wokutanga parwainge rwakazara nokumahombekombe uye vakaita kuti vanhu vose vaigara mumipata, kumabvazuva nokumavirira, vatize.
These are they who passed over the Jordan in the first month, when it is used to how over its banks: and they put to flight all that dwelt in the valleys both toward the east and toward the west.
16 Vamwe vaBhenjamini navamwe varume vaibva kuJudha vakauyawo kuna Dhavhidhi munhare yake.
And there came also of the men of Benjamin, and of Juda to the hold, in which David abode.
17 Dhavhidhi akaenda kundosangana navo akati kwavari, “Kana mauya kwandiri norugare, kuzondibatsira, ndakagadzirira kuti mubatane neni. Asi kana mauya kuzonditengesa kuvavengi vangu iwo maoko angu asina kuita zvechisimba, Mwari wamadzibaba edu ngaazvione uye akutongei.”
And David went out to meet them, and said: If you are come peaceably to me to help me, let my heart be joined to you: but if you plot against me for my enemies whereas I have no iniquity in my hands, let the God of our fathers see, and judge.
18 Ipapo Mweya wakauya pana Amasi mukuru waMakumi Matatu akati, “Haiwa Dhavhidhi, tiri vako! Haiwa mwanakomana waJese, tinewe! Kubudirira, kubudirira ngakuve kwauri, uye kubudirira ngakuve kuna vanokubatsira nokuti Mwari wako achakubatsira.” Saka Dhavhidhi akavagamuchira akavaita vatungamiri veboka ravarwi vake.
But the spirit came upon Amasai the chief among thirty, and he said: We are thine, O David, and for thee, O son of Isai: peace, peace be to thee, and peace to thy helpers. For thy God helpeth thee. So David received them, and made them captains of the band.
19 Vamwe varume vokwaManase vakabatana naDhavhidhi paakaenda navaFiristia kundorwisa Sauro. Iye navanhu vake havana kubatsira vaFiristia nokuti, vapedza kubvunzana, vatongi vavo vakamudzosa vakati, “Zvichatiurayisa kana akazotitiza akandobatana namambo wake Sauro.”
And there were some of Manasses that went over to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to fight: but he did not fight with them: because the lords of the Philistines taking counsel sent him back, saying: With the danger of our heads he will return to his master Saul.
20 Dhavhidhi paakaenda kuZikiragi, ava ndivo vaiva varume vokwaManase vakabatana naye: Adhina, Jozabhadhi, Jedhieri, Mikaeri, Jozabhadhi, Erihu naZiretai, vatungamiri vemapoka echiuru muna Manase.
So when he went back to Siceleg, there fled to him of Manasses, Ednas and Jozabad, and Jedihel, and Michael, and Ednas, and Jozabad, and Eliu, and Salathi, captains of thousands in Manasses.
21 Vakabatsira Dhavhidhi paairwisana namapoka amakororo, nokuti vose vakanga vari varwi vakashinga uye vaiva vatungamiri muhondo yake.
These helped David against the rovers: for they were all most valiant men, and were made commanders in the army.
22 Zuva nezuva varume vakauya kuzobatsira Dhavhidhi kusvikira ava nehondo huru kwazvo, sehondo yaMwari.
Moreover day by day there came some to David to help him till they became a great number, like the army of God.
23 Uku ndiko kuwanda kwavarume vakanga vakapakata zvombo kuti vandorwa, vakauya kuna Dhavhidhi paHebhuroni kuti vatore umambo hwaSauro vahupe kwaari, sezvazvakanga zvarehwa naJehovha:
And this is the number of the chiefs of the army who came to David, when he was in Hebron, to transfer to him the kingdom of Saul, according to the word of the Lord.

All these men of war well appointed to fight, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel, were of one heart to make David king.
